I was still very sleepy, curled up next to my sister. I could smell something it made my tummy grumble, but I was too tired to get up to go see what it was. I guess my sister didn't want to either, she was having a dream or something. She kept kicking me. I guess that's why I woke. I laid there. I was almost back to sleep and the next I knew I was moving further away from my sister and I couldn't see her anymore.
There were lots of bright lights and lots of things going on I didn't understand. Noises. LOTS of noises I could hear others asking where they were. Asking for their mothers, brothers and sisters. We were all scared.
This wasn't home. Mommy was at home. It was warm at home, not here. It was really cold here. I was really hungry now, where what mommy? Mommy feeds me when I wake up. I start to cry because I'm hungry and I can't find my mommy. I want my sister.
I was curled up and warm. I felt safe. Drowsily, I look over and see my sister and I thought I was back at home. I realized I wasn't lying next to my sister. I heard the crying again. The others were more talkative this time. Not so scared. A boy looked at me, "I think she likes you." puzzled I looked back at him, 'Who likes me?' "The girl silly the one that is holding you." 'What's a girl?' I asked him. He tells me that she's human. I didn't understand. I have never seen one before. 'What's a human?' I asked him. He gave me a funny look when to tell me something but was being pulled away.
I heard more noises from more of these humans I was told about. The one that was holding me and makin me feel safe and one a little different, but kind of the same. Everything about them was different. They didn't have fur, they had funny little ears and the talked funny. I think it was talking, it was really loud though. They smelled really good. It reminded me of mommy. I looked for my sister and I didn't see her. I had to find her. I started to squirm and the human wouldn't let me go. The human that was holding me wiped her hand on my fur and saying something that was pleasant. Her noise was pretty and she started to smell pretty again too.
After I calmed down the pretty smell came back and I just laid there feeling safe. I got a funny smell from the other one. I think that that human was not happy. I don't think that one liked me. It scared me. I still couldn't see my sister, but I was ok this human was safe. Their noises kept changing. The one would get louder, while the one holding me hugged me tighter every time they got upset. I knew when that human was upset. I could smell it. Then the pretty smell came back and the other one smelled better too.
I felt safe and happy. The next thing I know I am one of those human things put me in this thing it was small, there were walls around me. It was really dark. I got scared again. The pretty smell came again and I calmed down. There were lots of scary noises and moves, I knew I was safe. The human would protect me just like my mommy would.
I was in this thing for a little while. I knew I was outside for a little bit. I could smell grass and leaves and others like me and other very different smells.
'Happy Birthday Elisha!' mom had said gave me a big kiss and hug. Dad patted me on the head 'Happy Birthday, kiddo' 'Dad, I'm not a kid anymore. I'm 16. I'm almost a woman.' She said with a smirk. 'Yeah, kiddo don't remind me.' He had said as he hid his smirk behind a drink of coffee. 'Did you GET IT!!!" Elisha, exclaimed that they thought the neighborhood could hear. Mom looked at her with an amused look, 'Why Elisha Jean, is that how I raised you?' 'Sorry, mom. I know you guys said no car of my own, but you said I could get the really cute schnauzer at the pet store." 'Sort of, honey.' 'Dad, what do you mean sort of?' He knew this was going to happen. He grimaced and told her of how there was a change of plans, because mom had changed her mind a bit. 'Ugh, mom why couldn't you just get me what I wanted?" "Elisha, if you keep this up, we'll return him and let someone more deserving have him." Mom quipped. 'Sorry, mom, you know I didn't mean it. Can I still have it?' "So I tell you, he is a he and you're call him an it. Maybe we should take IT back." 'Ok Mom. Really I don't mean it that way. Can I see him?" Sure, we left him on the porch just in case." This time mom smirks as she take her drink.
It's so dark and it's starting to get cold. Where did they go? I'm all alone. I start to cry a little.
Elisha opens the door to see a box and hears a tiny whimper. She opens the box and there is the cutest fuzziest black puppy with the most amazing blue eyes. Her eyes light up. 'MOM! DAD! He's so fuzzy, and cute ,and cuddly!! OMG I love him you guys!'
All of the sudden there was light, I couldn't see things at first, then I saw a smaller human like the one that was holding me. This smaller human smelled prettier. But, was REALLY loud.' The smaller human picked me up and I felt safe again. I really liked this human. I was looking at her face and she was looking at mine. I couldn't understand her, I could tell she was happy and the first thing I understood. Bear.
